Thank you all.

I've just built Python with readline module.

After "make test" what I got was:
(...)
163 tests OK.
23 tests skipped:
     test_al test_cd test_cl test_curses test_dl test_gdbm test_gl
     test_imgfile test_largefile test_linuxaudiodev test_locale
     test_minidom test_nis test_ntpath test_poll test_pyexpat test_sax
     test_socket_ssl test_socketserver test_sunaudiodev
     test_unicode_file test_winreg test_winsound
3 skips unexpected on darwin:
     test_sax test_locale test_pyexpat

--- If there's something wrong, please give me a reply.

For the moment I'll avoid the "--enable-framework", since I wish to test 
Python on my local area first.

I can't say much about GUI interface, but I think there's a native 
Tcl/Tk implementation that might be useful.

About number crunching and modules I've seen that 
http://www.vex.net/parnassus/ has a vast amount of information.

I really appreciate all your help,
